Abstract

The project MUMMY funded by the European Commission develops means to improve the efficiency of mobile business processes through mobile, personalized knowledge management. MUMMY approaches the challenges of modern mobile work processes. To do so, it takes advantages of latest achievements in mobile connectivity and its capa- bilities (like “always on-line” high bandwidth personalization ubiquity), latest hardware options like camera-equipped hand- held devices, and uses multimedia, hypermedia, and semantic web technologies. Technical development and appliance of the results are intensively consulted and integrated with business processes of several commercial organizations that are mem- bers of the MUMMY consortium. In this paper the achieve- ments of MUMMY are introduced and individual components are briefly described.
